Alternatives to Dental Implant
Leave a gap or wear a denture
- Unsightly and embarrassing
- Low self-esteem
- Can impair eating and speech
- Denture is bulk plastic, plastic alters taste of food
- Bone and gum tissue will disappear where the missing tooth is
- The position of adjacent and opposing teeth will distort over time, adjacent and opposing teeth will drift into missing tooth space
Dental Bridge
- Healthy teeth need to be aggressively drilled down to attach the bridge
- Heavily drilled on teeth have decreased lifespan
- Bridge fuses teeth together making cleaning more difficult
- Bridges fail due to recurrent decay, shortening their lifespan making future solutions more complex and costly
- Bone supporting the gum beneath a bridge will shrink causing a large ugly void under the bridge
